GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING Read all safety warnings and
all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings
and instructions may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference. The term "power tool" in
the warnings refers to your electric (corded)
power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power
tool.
1. Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools
create sparks which may ignite the dust or
fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
2. Electrical safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use
any adapter plugs with grounded power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will
reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces,
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators.There is an increased risk of
electric shock if your body is grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a
cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk
of electric shock.
3. Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while you are tired or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A
moment of inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection. Protective equipment such
as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or
hearing protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off position before connecting to
power source and/or battery pack, picking up or
carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your
finger on the switch or energising power tools that
have the switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may
result in personal injury.

HG2000 02
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better control
of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving
parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of
dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used. Use of
dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
4. Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn it on and off. Any power tool that
cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or the battery pack from the power tool
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tool or these instructions to
operate the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the power
tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused
by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking
into account the working conditions and the work
to be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
5. Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
b) If the replacement of the supply cord is
necessary, this has to be done by the
manufacturer or its agent in order to avoid a
safety hazard.
6. Battery Tool Use and Care
a) Recharge only with the charger specified by
the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for
one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire
when used with another battery pack.
b) Use power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs. Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury or fire.

c) When Battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws or other small metal object
that can make a connection from one terminal
to another. Shorting the battery terminals
together may cause burns or a fire.
D) User abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; Avoid contact. If
contact accidentally occurs, flush with copious
amounts of water. If liquid contacts eyes, seek
medical help immediately. Liquid ejected from
the batter may cause irritation or burns.

HG2000 07
OPERATION
Before you start
1. Make sure that power supply
parameters meet the requirements
provided on the tool nameplate
2. Make sure the tool is in the off
position. Connecting the tool to the mains
socket while in the on position can result
in injury as the hot air gun starts
immediately.
3. When your workplace is too far to plug
the tool directly into the mains socket,
use and extension cord with a cable
cross-section meeting the tools
requirements. Extension cords should be
as short as possible. When in use
extension cords must be fully uncoiled.
During Operation
1. Switching On/Off
- To turn the tool on, set the on/off
switch (7) to mode 1 or 2. In both modes
the tool turns on with the air flow and
temperature values set before it was
turned off for the last time.
- To turn the tool off, set the on/off
switch (7) to position 0 until resistance is
felt.
- After a long period of operation at high
temperatures put the tool aside after
selecting mode 1 for a short period to
allow it to cool down.
2. Overheat protection
When the heater temperature is too high
(e.g. the air flow is restricted) the overheat
protection switches it off automatically,
however the blower remains on. When the
tool cools down to operation temperature,
the heater switches on again.
Operation modes
1. Warm air mode 1
- In mode 1 it is possible to adjust the air
flow rate. The temperature is always set to
50°C.
- The warm air in mode 1 is suitable for
cooling down heated objects or for drying a
paint coat. It can also be used to cool the
tool before putting away or replacing its
nozzle.
Note. After switching from hot air blow
settings (at higher temperatures), it takes
certain time to cool the tool down to 50°C.
During cooling the display (3) shows actual
temperature at the nozzle outlet.
When switching from hot air to warm air or
vice versa, the tool remains on current air
flow settings.
2. Hot air mode 2
- In mode 2 it is possible to adjust air flow
rate and temperature. While changing from
warm air mode to hot air mode, the
temperature is automatically set to the
value of the last hot air mode operation.

HG2000 08
OPERATION
3. Air flow adjustments
- The air flow rate can be controlled using
buttons for air flow settings (4) and (5).
1 bar –minimum air flow (approx.
250L/min)
5 bars –maximum air flow (approx.
500L/min)
- The air flow can be increased by
pressing the temperature increase button
(4) or decreased using the decrease
button (5).
- Pressing the button increases or
decreases the air flow by one step until
max or min limit is reached.
4. Temperature Adjustment
- Temperature adjustment is possible only
when the hot air mode 2 is selected.
- While changing the temperature setting,
the tool needs a short period to heat the
air stream up or cool it down to reach the
target temperature.
- the target temperature can be increased
in degrees by 10°C by pressing the
temperature increase button (2), or
decreased by pressing the temperature
decrease button (6).
Working Tips
NOTE! Avoid holding the tool perpendicular to
surface being processed. It results in hot air
reflection and creates a feedback of hot air
being sucked into the motor. It results in
increasing temperature inside the motor and
damage to the tool. The Heat gun should be held
at an angle of approx. 45° to the surface being
processed.
- The distance between the nozzle and object
being processed depends on the material, but
cannot be lower than 5cm.
- before you turn the tool off, set the
temperature to minimum and select the
maximum air flow for a short period (more than
ten seconds) to cool down the heating element.
It will extend the life of your tool.
- To cool the hot tool down or to have both
hands free put the hot air gun vertically onto a
horizontal surface see fig (B)
NOTE: be especially careful when working with
the tool aside! There’s a risk of burns caused by
its hot nozzle or hot air stream.

TS254EL 09
Maintenance and Cleaning
